can BigNum then start at sizeof(int)? overflow would auto-grow the BigNum to the appropriate size, and most integer math operations will keep space usage as low as possible. in fact, then int is just a degenerate case of BigNum, one that doesn't grow and throws an exception instead. or, maybe that's the case already, i should probably read the docs. ~jerry ************************************************************************** This e-mail and any files transmitted with it may contain privileged or confidential information.
